Did you know?
Toward the end of the nineteenth century, an infestation of phylloxera decimated many of the great chateaux in the region. A huge number of grapevines had to be destroyed to prevent the spread of the plague, which doggedly lingered on well into the twentieth century. In fact, it wasn't until after WW II that Bordeaux wine production was back up to its pre-plague level.
